Forty isn't Old If You're a Tree

Okay it's time....

2009-01-27T09:32:00.000-07:00

It's been so long since I've posted anything, I'm almost wondering if I can remember what all has happened in the past month or months...... So here it goes, to make things a little easier I am going to make a bunch of new posts to seperate all the exciting events, some of which can not even be chronicled?!?!

LINDSEY IS 17 !!!!!!

2009-01-26T22:29:00.009-07:00

I think I am going through a bit of denial that Lindsey is turning 17, now it doesn't seem like yesterday when she was born, but I remember bringing our first baby girl home with us and it definitely doesn't seem like it's been 17 years and next year she'll be getting ready to venture out on her own. I hope that I can face that day when it comes, I might need to be heavily medicated......Look at our sweet girl! What would a b-day be like without a little brother playing his new Christmas guitar for everyone (Gotta love those December B-day's)

Thanks to Rachael Woods Lindsey also got B-day Cupcakes, We Love you Rachael!!!!

Happy B-day Lindsey, We love you and are so proud of you!!!

Christmas is fun...

2009-01-26T19:51:00.004-07:00

I was sooo excited to get this picture of the kids with Santa for Christmas,because I thought that everyone was old enough for it to turn out good, however Braxton freaked out as soon as we got there and he WOULD NOT even go into the room where Santa was sitting....He was crying hysterically, and he kept saying, I don't want to sit on his lap...After much bribing and reasoning this is what we got.... The real smiles came out on Christmas Morning though......Check out the girls vs the boys, it was 6:30 a.m.

The Girls having fun in their new Scarves and Hats from Grandma & Grandpa Woolf!!!!
These Boys are sooooo excited, Braxton got an Ipod and Daylan got a very cool Lego Robot...

Check out these way cool boys, believe it or not they actually really wanted these coats for Christmas!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Singing a song is fun to do....

2009-01-26T05:00:00.000-07:00

Part of the fun and excitement comes with all of the fun Christmas programs, and the songs the kids learn. Daylan and Braxton were no exception as they learned not only their own songs but also those of the other Grades.....Check out Braxton, he is totally getting into it!!!For Daylan it looks a bit more painful.....

While Brandi liked to complain a lot about choir it actually looks as though she is enjoying herself during this concert!!!

Thanksgiving 2008

2009-01-25T21:49:00.008-07:00

We had such a great time for Thanksgiving as we were able to get together with my Grandmother, my mom, and two of my sisters, Jennifer and Stephanie with their families... We truly had a great time, but wish we could have seen everyone...I even got to go shopping with my mom and my sisters which is somewhat of a rarity!!! Here are some of the highlights......

Check out the cousins in the pool, they had such a great time together no matter what they were doing, Daylan is totally getting into it!!!

What would Thanksgiving be without some extracurricular activities, thanks to the Goodman family for the famous, or infamous Rocket Launch!!!! Go Cody...

5,4,3,2,1 Blastoff finally!!!!

Of course we had plenty of time to play games with this competitive group.....

Jordan and Ethan

Lots of boy Cousins

Check us out, only the puzzled are allowed:)
Getting serious with the Nintendo DS guitar hero game (It is way fun!!)

The Hanson Family
My Beautiful Grandma!!!

The Goodman leaders!!!

Grandma teaching the Birds how to properly fold festive napkins for special occasions (thank you Martha Stewart!!)

Daylan is showing Grandma just how much he loves to eat...(certain things of course!)

And lastly here we all are, aren't we quite a group and yet there was only about half of our clan present, hopefully next time we can get the whole posse (That doesn't happen too often!)

El Cheapo

2009-01-25T21:37:00.006-07:00

Here in Blackfoot the High School has a dance called el cheapo (only in Blackfoot) where whoever is the invited party whether it is the girl or the guy ends up paying, so Lindsey went with a group of girlfriends, and they had a blast... They had to dress up in vintage clothing, so that sorta explains the outfits they had a great time, I am totally convinced that the funnest way to date in high school is to go with friends!!:)

Brandis Dramatic Side

2009-01-25T18:38:00.003-07:00

Brandi loves makeup and photography, to name a few things, check out what she does when she is bored

Oh, BTW we do NOT let Brandi leave the house looking like this!!!!:)

Basketball Anyone!!!

2009-01-25T09:34:00.006-07:00

Braxton and his team full of friends check out the cute grin with the missing teeth!!! Gotta love it!!!!

Daylan and Braxton have kept us busy with all the basketball practices during the week and games on Saturdays, it has been fun to see how hard they play and how excited they get when they play well. Braxtons season ended in December, while Daylan continues until about mid March. Check out these cute faces and while there was plenty of action we didn't get many action shots that actually turned out, I think mostly because of the inept nature of the photographers on hand mostly Brandon and I..... First there is Braxton Check out the Excitement

Now here is Daylan in Action he is #42 and while he is a great ball player he had some hesitation around mid season about whether or not he wanted to keep playing or not. Of course his parents didn't give him an option, in our house once you commit to something, you follow through end of story....Well for several weeks we had a very unhappy boy, but I think he's finally decided to "get his head in the game" for which we are soooo grateful!!!! This seems to be one lesson that needs to be repeated over and over for this kid!!! There will more pictures of Daylan to come...

Sadie's

2009-01-23T15:26:00.000-07:00

Lindsey was really excited for Sadie's as a lot of her friends were getting together in a group and they were going to have a fabulous time. Since the boy she was asking was in her Dual Credit Calculus class and they spend sooo much time studying, she felt it appropriate to use a little Calculus to ask him, got him a bag of gummy brains and said he'd have to use his brains to figure out the derivative to find out who wanted to go to Sadie's with him and he responded likewise with another derivative problem to answer her.

It was fun to see the fun and frustration as the group grew and grew at on point I think they had 13 couples (which for the math challenged is 26) but they finally got it all together and they went to the mall for a scavenger hunt on their day date. (I don't think they would recommend this cause they got kicked out by mall security, but hey, just one more obstacle to overcome right?!?!?) Overall I think everyone had a great time. Here are some photos to commemorate the evening...

No need for flowers but, matching shirts are a MUST...... They are too cool!!!

One Spooktacular Night

2009-01-22T14:48:00.000-07:00

Braxton, Ethan and Daylan are TOTALLY READY!!!

What a wonderful Halloween we had this year, it is a holiday I normally dread for one simple fact, IT IS USUALLY FREEZING!!!! So we have these adorably cute and excited kids who can't wait to get out and go trick or treating, but every other year it usually involves bundling them up in their winter coats and ofttimes hats and gloves thus covering up much of the cuteness!!!! This year is the first since I've lived in Idaho (Gulp....Seventeen and a half years....sigh, it looks like we aren't moving out of Idaho after all) that is was really nice weather. Some kids wore light jackets, that fit remarkably well underneath their costumes and we were able to trick or treat until our feet got tired rather than when our hands, feet, ears and noses were frozen solid and it literally took an hour to unthaw...We had a lot of fun...we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house for a potato bar before we went out trick or treating and then someone (okay maybe it was me!!!) misplaced the camera...The kids did go trick or treating with friends in the "hood" and got a stash of candy :) Brandi was awesome and helped out in containing the holigans as we went out trick or treating...

Pumpkin Carving

2009-01-21T14:46:00.000-07:00

Brandon was gone until the night before Halloween, so that left me to get the costumes going, get the pumpkins carved and make sure kids get to basketball practice, pack meeting, get Lindsey off to a debate competition in Walla Walla Washington .... I was grateful to Adrienne who called me Monday and reminded me that there was only a few days left to carve the pumpkins that she so generously donated to our debilitated cause...

We ended up carving them on Thursday the 30th of October (which you might note is technically still before Halloween) and the kids did an awesome job...Daylan did a great job and really got into it as did Brandi who was a great help to us in our endeavor to find the perfect carving patterns.... I particularly love the faces of everyone as we scooped out the insides. I'm sure glad that we got a few photos of the pumpkins before we put them out.....The night after we put them out a bunch of kids stole them off our front porch and I'm quite sure they are somewhere on the Bingham county roadways... ( Brandon did get a description of the vehicle if any of you are CSI experts although I'm not certain that he got any fingerprints or DNA samples!!)

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth!!!

2009-01-20T12:08:00.000-07:00

It all started a few weeks ago when Braxton had a very, very, loose front tooth

Then his dad assisted the process and the after effect was......

A couple weeks later the companion tooth was ready to make his escape, however Braxton was not quite as willing to have assistance, bribery did not work for this one....While sitting in Stake Conference Christa offered $5 for him to get it pulled out, to no avail, Brandon even offered him money but he was displaying his fabulous stubborn side....

The moment of truth..... I ask if I can wiggle the tooth ( it literally is hanging on by a thread) and I casually pull it out he yelps a little, but when he sees the actual tooth is gone he starts sobbing and carries on for the next 10 minutes. ( I wonder where he gets that dramatic side from....)

I asked him not even 30 minutes later if it really hurt to get it pulled and he was like no (why would I ever ask such a dumb question ?!?!?!) Plus he was sooooo excited to call his Grandma and let her know...

Home Coming

2009-01-19T09:55:00.000-07:00

Lindsey had never intended on going to Homecoming, but she was pleasantly suprised when a nice kid from our nieghborhood invited her to go with him to the dance. It was fun if not a tiny bit painful finding a dress for the dance, but they looked cute together and I think it was over all a fun time for all.....although I think David was a bit bummed when Brandon made him promise to have her back by 11:30 p.m. in fact, while they were out he said maybe when she is a senior she can stay out until 12:00!!! There was a lot of funny things that happened on the date, and I have deliberated sharing them here, but sometimes you've got to let the kids tell their own stories.....

Powderpuff

2009-01-17T09:36:00.001-07:00

There was the all exciting powerpuff game, our first as parents with a child involved... There was the endless practices the trash talking between the seniors and juniors, the arguement over who had the cutest t-shirt (this was of course of ultimate importance to the game esp with girls)

Check out the photos and catch some of the excitment :)

The night of the game finally arrived, it was an exciting game (if you had a kid on the team and for the first time in a long time the juniors were victorious!!!!!

Brandon turns 40!!!!!

2009-01-15T22:36:00.001-07:00

Night at the Fair

2008-09-07T21:50:00.005-06:00

Anyone who knows anything about Blackfoot knows that when the Eastern Idaho State Fair hits Blackfoot, it is a BIG deal...This year we opted out of the wrist bands for the kids to ride the rides and decided to keep some of our money, by making fair food at home I'm sure we saved some money but definitely not calories!! Instead of eating one Tiger Ear we had an unlimited supply and scones and honey butter, Funnel Cakes, Kettle Corn, Navajo Tacos it definitely was not our pocketbook that we were concerned about....Watch out for the Waistline.... I know that I ate myself sick on more than one occasion. Lindsey, who worked every morning of the fair to pick up trash earned some free ride tickets that she was kind enough to give them to Daylan and Braxton to use (they owe her huge!!!) So we took the kids over one night of the fair checked out the booths and even saw the hypnotist show!! (Brandi's request) Here are the boys as they hold on for dear life as they try out the Scrambler!!!Braxton was dying to go on this ride...The Spaceship 3000. However in this picture it looks like he is terrified, He loved the ride and ended up going on it twice :)
Check out the entrance to the Spaceship 3000...Looks pretty amazing lol!!!!!

Back to School

2008-08-27T21:26:00.002-06:00

Sending kids back to school, brings so many mixed emotions for me...Excitment that the kids won't be fighting every day with one another, happiness that I won't continue to feel the tremendous amounts of guilt each day when I have to work, and yet extreme sadness that my babies are growing up so quickly, I start to tear up just thinking about it and they've already been in school for about two weeks....:( Aren't these about the cutest kids ever, so excited to meet their new teachers and classmates!!!! This photo will join the other 11 back to school morning on the porch pic's:)
Just look at these fantastic girls I can't believe that Lindsey is a junior, I am going to need serious med's before her senior year even begins. I have extreme anxiety just thinking about it, and Brandi is already in eighth grade. She is really enjoying this school year much more than last year, so we'll keep our fingers crossed!!!

Here are the boys, Daylan's last year of grade school and Braxton is in the second grade. Approximately the second day of school Daylan had to fill out a paper about what he would do if he was principal for a day. When asked the question what would be the worst part of his job He said "it would be talking to people" Of course this is no suprise to those of us who know Daylan, it just made me smile...Then there is Braxton who is just so excited everyday to play with all of the friends that he has at school....Gotta love their different personalities!!!

Adventures with Grandpa Woolf

2008-08-20T21:45:00.016-06:00

My dad got some Salt Lake Bees tickets for his birthday courtesy of his wonderful daughters....living the closest of all the sisters to my dad, he generously invited our family to go to one of the games with him and Judy.... My dad has been excited about the new transportation system that the Utah area is implementing and has been anxious to try it out, so we were also lucky enough to have our first experience on the Utah's Frontrunner commuter train into Salt Lake. Currently it travels from Ogden to Salt Lake, but will eventually travel from Pleasant View to Provo. So we met up with Grandpa & Grandma Woolf in Ogden and off we went.....
Here are the Brandi and Braxton on the Front Runner, it looks like they even like each other..Amazing

Here are Lindsey and Daylan.... Doesn't Daylan look excited!!! He usually is even if he can't show it!:)

Aren't these girls funny, Grandpa bought these fun foam fingers for Lindsey and Brandi!!!!

Look at our fearless leader, that would be Brandon, I had to include at least one photo of my wonderful husband, who put up with us all and was the photographer....let the record show he really was there!!!

Check out my Dad, he really was excited for this

game....The tickets we gave my dad were for the best available seats when he presented them, when we arrived on a Friday night guess where those "Best Available" seats were.... you guessed it...In the Grass.....He was not thrilled about it as you can tell but we had a great time at the game and check out our happy faces as we wait for the Train back to Ogden.... the stadium in the background....It was a great Adventure Thanks again Dad and Judy!!!

Lindsey and Rachael's night out

2008-08-15T21:43:00.001-06:00

Check this out, Lindsey and Rachael were bored one night and got all glammed out, they come upstairs, it must have been about 11:00 or 11:30 because everyone else was in bed....They casually say to me while laughing uncontrollably we're going to go on a walk....Luckily I was still awake enough to come and see what was up....then a few days later look at the new photos on our computer.....the Glam photos....I loved it ....my absolute favorite is the last photo.

Check out these fabulous Girls....Taking photos of themselves!!!!

Aren't they BEAUTIFUL................
Okay this is my fav girls, the pondering pose.....What are you thinking....We look so fabulous... it's the middle of the night and here we are standing in front of my parents minivan....hmmmmmm...... Whats wrong with this pic?!?!? Maybe some CUTE boys!!

P.S. We miss you Rachael, hope your having more exciting times at College!!!

Fun at Girls Camp

2008-08-06T19:27:00.001-06:00

Yes, it's been a while, I just don't know where the time seems to go. Our ward went to Girls Camp the first week of August (Wow, that's been a month ago!!!) We had a ward camp this year and the girls had such a great time... We rented a cabin in Island Park, just FYI it is the only way to go.... After our five mile hike we got some rafts and floated back down to Macks Inn where we saw a couple of Moose....One of the highlights, was the girls reaction to the boys that were in the play we went to our final night, I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long time, Brandi actually asked one of the boys for his e-mail address it was hysterical, some of the girls have even tracked them down on face book...

Here we are on our 5 Mile Hike.... The girls were sure troopers even if they wondered if their leaders knew where they were going...lolThe ride back to Macks inn after our big hike...

Check out the the great Mike Birch, getting the girls back on track...
The Moose we saw, we floated right by him, check out how brave these observers are to get soooo close, these are huge animals ...
We sure enjoyed the Priesthood Brethren when they came up, check out all the girls listening to a story that Tim Woods was very animated about...It was fun to see the girls gather round...
This isn't the greatest photo, but check out how cool we are in our pink shirts that say "We Rock Steadfast and Immoveable" Yes the t-shirt guys spelled Immovable wrong and even when I brought it to their attention after our event...they assured me that it was an alternate spelling?!?!? I guess if it doesn't come up wrong on Spell Check, it is right...Although check it out when I use spell check on my blog it comes up as a misspelled word....hmmm weird...

I love this photo, it was on our way back down the mountain!!!

The Girls working hard on the Fabulous craft project we had for them...

Some of our finished products, Great job Maren and Jesse!!!

The Laurels are tooo cool!!! Always keeping things fun and exciting!!

Debate Times

2008-08-02T16:27:00.000-06:00

Lindsey had the opportunity to go to a Debate camp this summer, yes there is such a thing lol. It was two weeks long and they worked the kids hard, lectures, research and studying for approximately 10 days and then a tournament to top it off. Lindsey worked really hard and made many interesting new friends, one girl told her she was the sweetest white girl she ever knew. She ended up doing quite well in the tournament even though there were many set backs along the way... Can you tell she had to work hard...the ripped jeans and all, it was brutal:)

Birds in Flight to Island Park

2008-07-21T23:58:00.005-06:00

When J.B. and Jolene invited us to come up to Island Park while they were there, how could we possibly say no... We loaded up the fam (minus Lindsey who was at Debate camp in Walla Walla) and headed up into the hills... Who knew what fun and exciting times awaited us. There was

Golfing...

The Golfers Extraordinaire!!!

Then there was feeding the fish at Big Springs, check out the size of the fish we were trying to feed until Mr. Muskrat came along.... Some of you may think that Mr. Muskrat looks so cute (start singing a little Muskrat Love) but if you have ever seen one out of the water you may think twice, since they look like a HUMONGOUS RAT !!!!! Have you ever seen their long thick rat like tails.......VERY ALARMING TO SAY THE LEAST...

No Muskrat Love ALLOWED!!!!!

Here we all are, safe after our escapade with giant fish and muskrats!!!

Of course there was Swimming and Tennis.....

And even after all of that we went on a nice relaxing 3 hour raft trip...It was Beautiful up there everything was green, we had a great time, thanks so much Grandma & Grandpa!!!

Aren't they soo cute!!!I absolutely love this photo, it reminds me of when Braxton used to call himself the Cheeto Hooker, a story for another Day.....lolDaylan thought he could actually force his dad alias Brandon into the water, the war was on!!!

All the boys ended up in the water, which is appropriate if you think about it!!

Golf Anyone???

2008-07-21T14:47:00.001-06:00

Anyone who knows Brandon, is aware that he has a bit of an obsession with golf, watching golf, playing golf,..... This year has been a bit tough on the old ego as far as the golf game goes, so he has spent a considerable amount of time practicing his swing at the driving range. One Monday night we decided to make a family outing of it... Here is the evidence, of the love we have for good ole' dad :)

Soccer Times

2008-07-20T16:19:00.000-06:00

Check me out I've got the Moves...K, this is the tricky part keeping you feet on the ground!!
What Form....

The year of sports has ended and although part of me was glad to see it end (the soccer coach side hahaha lol!!!) the mom side of me will sort of miss the excitment a seven year old has for the game and more importantly the treats here are some of the fun moments...

Daylan's 10th Birthday

2008-07-17T23:39:00.003-06:00

I can't believe that Daylan turns ten this year, it just seems so unbelievable that these kids are growing up so fast....Remarkably though, their mother has found a way to somewhat fool people into thinking that she is younger than she really is....The SECRET, only be seen in public with children ten years or younger. HAHAHA, I really do love my older girls they just make me seem so old....

Finally a genuine smile, no cheese factor here

You've got to have the silly pose!!
What a shot Scott, these kids are dumbfounded!!!
What could it be???

Picking up Daylan....

2008-07-14T22:31:00.003-06:00

After the infamous "Colorado Adventure" Mom and Austin always ride the train back to Utah to bring the kids part of the way back. So why not make it another adventure, we took the kids to Boondocks. Check it out. Thanks for the adventure Grandma, Grandpa and Stephanie.....Daylan had a blast! And we all had a blast at Boondocks!!!

Look at that face... Braxton means business, look out DadHere we come, you're dead in the water lol!!!
The Race is on, and we're not even kidding!!!! He's got his game face on :)
You've gotta love the 18th hole on a miniature golf course...of course we all know

it swallows up your ball, but this one also shoots hot flames out of his head, and on a 95 degree day not quite the prize you'd be looking for.... Go Brandi!

What kind of finesse is Lindsey After!?!?!?!

Back to those darn bumper boats, the real question, can anyone stay dry????

More Colorado....

2008-07-10T23:42:00.003-06:00

Isn't this the greatest!!!!

Here we are on the Box Springs Canyon hike, it goes right up next to the Water, More hiking photos
Lindsey is relaxing, enjoying herself....
Don't get too close...

Colorado Adventures....

2008-07-10T23:07:00.002-06:00

Everyone enjoyed the warm water at Ouray Springs
Stephanie's son Nolan was sure a cutie...He loved the water!!!The Goodman and Bird boys!

Brandi having a good time getting in touch with friends!
Having a fun Hike!

After our wonderful trip to Park City, we headed straight out to Colorado for a visit. When the grandkids turn 10ish my mom takes them on a "Colorado Adventure with another cousin, so this was Daylans year for a Colorado Adventure with his cousin Dylan...We got to spend a bit of time with my sisters Jennifer, Stephanie & Jo and their families and we had a great time... Check out the fun photos of course there was hiking and then swimming at the hot springs in Ouray and tennis for those Federer fans and just plain old chillin out times...It really is beautiful in Ouray

Fourth of July 2008

2008-07-06T18:44:00.004-06:00

This year for the Fourth of July we went to Park City and were able to see the fireworks show from the balcony of our room. It was amazing :) While we were there we enjoyed many things, swimming, tennis, gondola rides, hiking, shopping and of course eating!!!

We rode the gondola up to the top of the mountain intending to just check things out and ended up going on a bit of a hike with flip flops and sandals. Some of us enjoyed it more than others.

Fun with the Birds

2008-06-30T11:55:00.000-06:00

On Sunday we went over to Great-Grandpa Bird's house to roast hot dogs and s'mores with Grandma & Grandpa, The Mow's and Bridget. It was hot but we had a great time.

The ?!@!? BIKE RIDE

2008-06-29T23:30:00.000-06:00

It started out as a nice summer day, the weekend before the fourth of July, when Brandon decided to instigate some family fun...Lets go on a bike ride he said, so we packed everyone up on bikes and headed off. Our first stop (Approx 1.5 miles) was at our local Subway to grab some lunch. No stopping to eat our lunch in the air conditioned store but off to Jensens Grove to eat our picnic lunch. After our brief lunch break we were back on the trail to Rose Pond (About a 8 mile loop from Jensens Grove)...When we stop halfway on the loop the kids were dumbfounded...."We rode all the way out here to look at THIS????" Clearly they were not impressed.....The good news was we were halfway done with our journey....Wait, was that good news?????

Lindsey & Brandi get a cool drink...

Daylan, the conscientious one:)

Braxton-The only one truly enjoying the ride!

Our Commander in Chief at the lovely Rose Pond!

Trip to Manti

2008-06-28T08:01:00.000-06:00

We were able to take the Y/W in our Ward to Utah to see the Manti Pageant. It was an incredible experience to watch the pageant with such a amazing backdrop as the Manti Temple. It really is a beautiful Temple, and so cool that you could see it from wherever you were in town because of where it set up so high on the hill. I thought it was an amazing experience and hope that the girls will always treasure the opportunity that we had to go, as I always will!! Please share in some of our fun experience by watching the slides.

Getting off the Ground

2008-06-27T13:42:00.007-06:00

Daylan successfully completed another year of baseball and then came the end of the season festivities. The scrumptious menu included yummy burgers burnt on the outside and pink in the middle....., delicious:) with a side of wind...lol

Lindsey & Brandi enjoying the game!!

Ready for a Home Run!!!!

I can't say I'm sad to see the season end, I believe there was two or three games that we enjoyed without snow, rain, wind or our winter coats, blankets and umbrellas..... You've got to love this Idaho weather. Not to mention the fact that Daylan was terrified of getting hit by a rogue ball and so we had several meltdowns and days of dramatic illness, but all in all I think we've had a good season, and Daylan has learned many things not all of them baseball related. Oh the joys of being a parent...Looking forward to additional tennis & soccer drama to come Summer 2008!! Hold on to your Hats!

Flying Under the Radar

2008-06-25T19:05:00.002-06:00

I wish I knew how all of this worked. I have been so inspired by my friends who have already ventured into the blogging world I thought I'd give ir a whirl... I took Braxton to play at Jensens Grove today and my two teenage girls wanted to tag along.. this is what they accomplished, pretty good for a summer day...

Here is Lindsey...

Brandi looking her best...

Too cool...Brandi

Lindsey...
Two Silly Sisters...
I wonder if they will forgive me?!?!?!?!? Oh well, what are mom's for?
